MILWAUKEE – Twin Disc, a global leader in power transmission technology, in collaboration with its distribution partner, Palmer Johnson Power Systems, is proud to announce that its Electric Propulsion System Conversion Kit has been approved by the California Air & Resources Board (CARB) under the Clean Off-Road Equipment Voucher Incentive Project (CORE).

CORE is an incentive program intended to encourage California off-road equipment users to purchase or lease currently commercialized zero-emission off-road equipment. This incentive project is designed to accelerate the deployment of clean off-road equipment by offsetting the higher cost of zero-emission technology with a point-of-sale discount.

“We are proud to contribute to California’s environmental initiatives and support the maritime industry’s shift toward sustainable practices,” said Klaus Meyersieck, Global Product Manager at Twin Disc. “This approval by CARB is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team and our partners at Palmer Johnson Power Systems. Together, we look forward to seeing our systems make a positive impact on the environment and the industry.”

The Twin Disc system eliminates the main diesel engine and its maintenance costs, and cuts fuel costs and emissions by providing configurable power-dense energy storage systems to efficiently power the application. By integrating Twin Disc’s system, operators can benefit from substantial operational efficiencies and environmental advantages, while also gaining access to financial incentives available through the CORE program.

“This approval from CARB is a significant validation of our commitment to sustainability and innovation,” continued Meyersieck. “Our Electric Propulsion System Conversion Kit not only meets but exceeds the stringent requirements set forth by the CORE program. As one of only three manufacturers with CARB’s approval in the commercial harbor craft (CHC) category, we have positioned ourselves as a leader in the transition to cleaner, more efficient maritime operations.”
